Short Film: "The Rythm Of My Life: Ismael Sankara"

My boys at the Freshman collective producers crew been doing their rounds, mostly independent movie festivals, around the world promoting their short film/ documentary narrating their encounter with young up and coming American rapper, originally from Burkina Faso Ismael Sankara.

The movie been getting rave reviews and nominations at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, the 2012 International Black Film Festival in Nashville, the 2012 San Diego Black Film Festival, the 19th Urban Wolrd Film Festival and won the Audience Award at the 7th edition of ÉCU - the European Independent Film Festival.

Lately, they've been feeling quite generous so they want to share the fruit of their labor with the public and made the movie available for free online.

Watch the movie here

The grind doesn't stop here, Ish is also putting an album out produced of course by my boys Hokube, Mike Mef and Bougard. the first single is titled "Real Africans. You can listen to it here:

Show some love and support to the homies and make sure you let me know how you really feel about the project. One!

Get it right!

Video: DJ Khaled ft. Chris Brown, Nicki Minaj & Lil Wayne "Take It To The Head"

The video has nothing to do with the song so don't expect any deep meanings out of the visuals.

The boys at Complex sure know how to get that HD quality out of their photographs.

Video: Nicki Minaj ft. 2 Chainz "Beez in The Trap"

Ass shots galore!!!!!! all of a sudden now I like the track. *2 Chainz ass salute*

Videos: Drake "HYFR" ft. Lil Wayne & "Take Care" ft. Rihanna

I think it's time Wayne fire his stylist. Never been to Bar Mitzvah before, but now i really want to. I would have crashed this one but Drake Jewish goons scare the shit out of me. NOT!!! Sidebar: Somebody get me shorty with the curls name a.s.a.p.

You had Rihanna available for your video and the best you can do is hug her? Foh!!! I don't even get the visuals, a bullshit, a bird...

Video: Ryan Leslie "5 Minute Freshen Up"

You saw the studio session recording of this track now watch R.Les put the visuals into it and get his modern day Miami Vice on.

Music: Kendrick Lamar ft. Dr. Dre "The Recipe"

The long awaited single by Kendrick Lamar, Dre's protege is finally out and boy does it live up to the hype. I mean the amazing production takes you on a journey of sonic bliss as soon as you strap your Beats By Dre headphones over your head. The song, however lacks content, misses the concept of the title and you're left at the end of the trip with no memorable lyrics, "quotables" as I like to call them. I'm sitting here in my kitchen waiting to get the ingredients to that recipe but alas I'll have to settle with blasting the joint in the whip and keep my oven warmed up just in case. Cake.

Video: The Throne "Niggas in Paris"

The long awaited and disappointing video of one of the biggest Rap record of this past year is finally out. A couple months ago during the Watch The Throne Tour, Ye's rep announced that they will shoot the video in Staples Center in L.A, immediately I knew we will be let down. I mean any creative director will pitch you taking the production to Paris and shoot the shit out of Versailles, Champs Elysees and La Tour Eiffel, alas. Los Angeles was good enough for Kanye, indoors with a plethora of craze fans waving their hands around screaming "That shit cray".

However on a technical point this video was beautifully shot, I mean the quality of the images is so vivid, makes you think you were right there on stage with them. Did Hype Williams edit the video? Looks like he at least influenced it. Anywho, Let me replay the video for the 18th time and look for some subliminal epilepsy induced still images to feed my Illuminati conspiracy theory. That shit cray!

They went viral for the video, pardon the redundancy. Drake makes a brief appearance at the end letting his girl shine throughout the track.
